Reason: This page tries to have level 7 headings which don't exist; a new page would be good to avoid the overload on this page.
This page documents an exhaustive list of blocks which no longer exist in current versions of the game.
Java Edition
Outright removed blocks
Despite having notable unique functionality or a block ID of their own, these blocks were eventually removed by the game, or replaced by another block of completely different use.
Old Colored Wool / Cloth
Added in Classic, wool had 16 colors. All colors minus white, were removed in late Infdev. With the introduction of Beta 1.2, Colored Wool was re-added, albeit with different colors, though some cloth colors were left behind.
Gears
A fully animated block, it was inaccessible and had no real use other than decoration.
Infinite water and lava source
These blocks persistently generated their respective liquid around them.
Locked chest
A joke block, completely unrelated to the current ability to lock chests via NBT.
Shrub
A block that appeared identical to the dead bush, although possessing a random offset and the drops of grass, as they shared a numerical ID. These were merged into the dead bush in 17w47a.
Blocks replaced by other blocks
These blocks were either made redundant by the later introduction of another block serving their exact purpose, resulting in them either getting merged into said block ID or simply removed from the game, or were simultaneously renamed and retextured while retaining an identical core functionality.
Rose
The roses were blocks, that could be crafted into 2 rose red. They were added in 0.0.20a and they were renamed to poppy in 13w36a.
Generic dead coral block
In snapshot 18w09a, all coral blocks had the same texture, colored differently. Because of this, there was only one dead variant needed. By the time of snapshot 18w10a, each color of the coral block had its own unique texture, but would still all die into the same generic dead coral block from the previous snapshot. The generic dead coral block was removed and replaced with dead variants for each color in snapshot 18w10b.
Powered comparator
During the development for 1.5, the comparator at first used two separate block IDs to represent its powered and unpowered states, with name IDs unpowered_comparator and powered_comparator, and numeric IDs 149 and 150 respectively. As of snapshot 13w05a, the powered_comparator block was removed from use in the game, replaced by a powered block state on the unpowered_comparator block. It is removed completely in snapshot 17w47a for 1.13, as of The Flattening.
Grassless Dirt
From snapshot 13w36a to 14w25a, a form of dirt called "grassless dirt" existed. It had the same texture as dirt, but would not grow grass. In later 1.7 snapshots, it would generate in Savannah M biomes. Grassless dirt dropped regular dirt even when mined with Silk Touch. It was later replaced by coarse dirt.
Blocks resulting from extreme data values
The majority of these blocks were likely never actually meant to exist in-game, and occurred only due to the game handling extreme metadata values as it would those in usually attainable ranges, resulting in strange blocks with traits arguably analogous to garbage data.
Leaves with data value 3, 7, 11, 15
From the introduction of leaves in Beta 1.2 onward to the Flattening of 1.13, leaves used numerical data values within the leaves block to hold their type. As only three species existed from Beta 1.2 to release 1.1, with data values 0/1/2 (and by extension 4/5/6, 8/9/10 and 12/13/14), a data value of 3, 7, 11 or 15 would produce an undefined leaf type. This block appeared identical to conventional oak leaves, but appeared to use the spruce tint.
These were substituted out of the game with the first 1.2 release snapshot, as jungle leaves from then on occupied that space in the leaves block.
Seamless smooth stone slabs
When new slab types were introduced in Beta 1.3,[verify] slabs with data values up to 7 that exceeded the value of the highest legitimately obtainable slab would use top on all faces.
Two of these were replaced by the brick and stone brick slabs in Beta 1.8 Pre-release, one was replaced by nether brick slabs in snapshot 12w49a for 1.4.6, and the last remaining one was replaced by the quartz slab in 1.5 snapshot 13w02a. The smooth stone block was effectively reimplemented later in 1.5 in snapshot 13w04a by making the upper eight stone slabs use the top texture on all sides (also introducing smooth sandstone and quartz as a result), but the slab version are no longer in the game.
Strange levers
These also had weird distorted models, and could be obtained by loading a world from 1.3 or later containing ceiling levers (0, 7, 8, 15) in 1.2.5.
Blocks in flower pots that should not be in flower pots
From 1.7 onward, as the amount of blocks that could be placed within pots exceeded 15, conventional 4-bit metadata values could not be used to store the contents of a flower pot, and as such a block entity needed to be used instead. This allowed any block (or indeed item) to be placed within a flower pot, but few of these would actually render with the block inside.
In 14w17a, almost certaintly due to changes in how blocks render with them being changed to use block models rather than hardcoded models, these odd pot variants simply rendered as empty pots with no further interesting quirks, aside from the fact that their "invalid" contents could be retrieved from the pot via breaking or later right clicking it. They were completely removed in 17w47a, which split the flower pot block up into an individual block ID per potted object and scrapped the tile entity.
13w36a
The first version to make flower pots use a block entity, the fact that flower pots could hold ferns bled over somewhat into its other damage values, allowing shrubs and grass to exist in pots as well. Also, cobwebs would render if placed in a flower pot, for completely unknown reasons.
In order to be affected by biome coloration, potted ferns/grass/green shrubs needed to have a data value of 11 (the data value formerly belonging to the potted fern) – otherwise they would appear as their raw textures.
- Potted Gray Grass.png
/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:31,Data:1} - Potted Gray Fern.png
/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:31,Data:2}
14w06a
In this version, a large amount of blocks now render if placed in flower pots via commands. In order to place these with commands, use the following command, with ITEM and DATA substituted with the appropriate values from Java Edition data value/Pre-flattening/Block IDs as neccessary:
/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:ITEM,Data:DATA}
Only blocks that are completely unique in their rendering are shown here; some visually identical blocks do exist that are not listed here separately, such as the early stages of both carrots and potatoes, or potted pumpkins and jack o'lanterns.
The blocks always appear as a cross shape based on their bottom texture. Blocks with translucency appear either completely opaque or, in the case of stained glass, most pixels are invisible.
Some blocks appear tinted by biome if their normal variants usually would be. As leaves were tinted as per their numerical data values, setting the number prior to destroy to 1 for specifically potted leaves causes them to be tinted with the spruce color, and setting it to 2 gives the birch color. 0 or 3 results in them being tinted per biome like oak and jungle leaves are.
14w06b
In 14w06b, likely due to the fix for MC-47469, an additional 57 visually distinct potted objects could be placed:
- Potted Missing.png
(this is the end portal)
14w07a
14w07a introduced the iron trapdoor, which rendered in a flower pot.
Removed in 1.8 (14w26a)
These existed due to the previous handling of block variations through metadata, rather than through block states or as separate IDs. Extreme values of these would produce unintended effects.
Faceless pumpkins and jack o'lanterns
It was possible to place pumpkins and jack o'lantern with no actual face using metadata values 5 and above. Their models became missing in 14w10a and they faced removal in snapshot 14w26a like other unintended blocks.
In 17w47a, the faceless pumpkin made a comeback as the proper, default pumpkin block, with the then-current pumpkin being moved to the role of carved pumpkin. The faceless jack o'lantern will likely not be reimplemented.
Faceless and exceptional furnaces
Furnaces (as well as lit furnaces) with metadata values 0, 1, 6, 7, 12 and 13 would have no faces, using the side texture for all orthogonal faces and the usual top and bottom texture on the top and bottom. Furnaces and lit furnaces with data values 8, 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15 would appear normal, but were probably not legitimately obtainable.
Unlike with many blocks, these need to be placed using external editors, as /setblock will always place a furnace which is within the normal range.
All of these invalid furnaces and lit furnaces lost their models in 14w10a, with the exception of the unlit furnace with data value 0, which kept the faceless appearence. The lit furnace with no facing direction regained its model sometime between 14w17a and 14w21b.
Six-sided blocks
The following blocks existed in the game at some point before being phased out with the advent of block states. Whether they will return is not known.
While the hay bale lost its texture in 14w10a like many other blocks, it took until 14w17a for the piston blocks to appear as missing texture blocks.
The six-sided pistons could be obtained without commands using special contraptions that caused pistons to be updated by other pistons in a special way.
Interestingly, other six-sided blocks resulting from similar circumstances such as wood and smooth stone were not removed, and were even given unique block IDs and made craftable in later updates.
Green shrub
These blocks had an identical texture to the shrub and dead bush, with the main difference being that it was tinted based on the biome.
Unlike the usual shrub, its inclusion within the game was most likely unintentional, as it became present in the game only after 13w10a (as it crashed the game from 13w02a to 13w09c, and appeared identical to usual grass beforehand), and sported a missing texture after 14w10a like many other undefined blocks.

Overgrown cocoa
Cocoa has twelve possible block state combinations, as it has four possible orientations coupled with three distinct stages of growth. Before the introduction of proper block states, this therefore meant that twelve of the possible sixteen metadata variants were actually used, resulting in the uppermost four exhibiting interesting undefined behavior.
From their introduction up until and including 13w01b, they used the dragon egg texture, which makes sense as the dragon egg texture was directly to the left of the cocoa pod texture in terrain.png. From 13w10a up to 14w06, it appeared as a broken cocoa pod, and from then on up to its removal it used the missing texture.

Overgrown wheat
Because wheat has eight distinct growth stages, the other upper eight values went completely unused. As a result, for a relatively long period of time, wheat crops with such values would see vast unintentional changes, as the textures they would try to pull from would end up overflowing over to the next line of terrain.png.
This included the textures commonly speculated to be for chair and table blocks. Whether Notch was using extreme inaccessible wheat values as a way to test chair models is highly unlikely, although still possible.
Overgrown melon and pumpkin stems
Melon and pumpkin stems also have eight distinct stages of growth. However, instead of having eight individual textures for each of the eight growth stages, each stage reveals two more pixels of the stem texture from the top down, and the tint applied to the stem texture also changes. As a result, since the stems have eight unused upper values in addition to the eight lower used states, the upper states start pulling from the texture below the stem texture on the texture atlas currently in use, and they use extreme tints that cannot normally be applied in normal gameplay. Their wireframe hitboxes would also appear to extend above the bounds of the block when targeted, but attempting to target anything above the height of the block would result in the stem not actually being targeted.

Overeaten cakes
There are six different states cake can legitimately be in: either intact, or in one of five progressively more eaten states, which was kept track of via block metadata like with many other blocks. Like with many blocks previously showcased, only some of these states were truly legitimately accessible. As such, interesting behavior is demonstrated by the inaccessible states.
Cakes with six bites, while obtainable now, were never actually obtainable in the game during the time when these odd overeaten cakes existed. Cakes with seven bites were completely two-dimensional, and cakes with eight through fifteen bites appeared especially glitchy, proceeding to invert themselves, such that their textures would be visible only on the inside rather than the outside, and these textures would be borrowed from adjacent spots of the texture atlas currently in use. Their wireframe hitboxes would also visually extend in this direction, but they would actually be able to be targeted only by aiming at the portion of that hitbox within the block the cake is really situated. Collision boxes for these are similarly odd.
Minor removed block variants
Certain blocks had removed variants with minor, but still notable, quirks.
Invisible stairs
Originally, stair blocks with data values 4 through 15 would be completely invisible and have no collisions the only indication of their existence being their full block hitbox outline when targeted.
In 12w08a, these data values would go on to be used for the newly implemented upside down stairs. Data values 8 through 15 would appear to just be duplicates of 0 through 15, and were probably unused in themselves until their removal. These last eight were removed in 14w26a, like other invalid blocks. They also never used the missing texture.
Wall sign with full block hitbox
Signs used block metadata values 2, 3, 4 and 5 to determine their facing direction. As a result, signs placed with data values 0, 1 or anything 6 and above would always appear facing south, and have the wireframe hitbox (but not physical collision box) of a full block.
These were probably removed in mid 1.8 like many other such blocks.
Invisible random ladders
Ladders also used block metadata values 2, 3, 4 and 5 to determine their facing direction. As a result, ladders placed with data values 0, 1 or anything 6 and above exhibited behaviour atypical of normal ladders. Notably, they would appear to readily switch what block face they were attached to (sometimes seemingly randomly, but could be controlled by looking at a valid ladder, in which case they end up switching to whatever its hitbox was), which could be seen through their wireframe hitbox and their collision box. Initially they would be full cubes.
For most of their existence they appeared completely invisible, although in 14w07a they changed to appearing as small missing texture cubes centered on the block. They became full missing texture cubes in 14w10a.
These were probably removed in mid 1.8 like many other such blocks.
Vines with data value 0 also appeared as small missing texture cubes, however they still exist in 1.16.3 (as vines with all states set to false).
Incorrectly modelled torches
When block metadata was still in use, torches used state 5 for normal floor attachment and 1, 2, 3 and 4 for wall torches. 0, 6 and 7 appear to be unused, and are visually identical to normal torches. 0 can only be obtained via external editors, and oddly not by setblock.
Torches with data values 8 and up appear to exhibit interesting behaviour: 8, 13, 14 and 15 appeared and behaved as normal floor torches. However, 9, 10, 11 and 12 would have the wireframe hitboxes of wall torches, but would appear as floor torches, causing the hitbox to be detached from the torch.
Redstone torches are affected in much the same way.
Loading a chunk with these in 14w06a causes a game crash. These became small missing cubes in 14w06b before graduating to full missing cubes in 14w10a until their removal in what is almost certaintly 14w26a.
Strange buttons
Note: due to the inconsistent nature of these blocks, certain details are not fully confirmed.
In 1.7.10, using commands to place a button with data value 0, 13, 14 or 15 will result in very odd behaviour. The button will appear as a full oak planks or stone block, until (possibly) another button is observed or an item of said button is obtained, at which point it will use item model of button. They do not appear to change shape when pressed in either case.
Much information regarding these buttons remains unknown as these are very inconsistent in their behaviour and also somewhat unstable, breaking frequently, and their behaviour probably also changes drastically per version. Despite never actually changing data value, they seem to differently register what block face theyare attached to each time.
What exactly the other data values of buttons were that were unused and eventually removed are unknown.
Bottomless and bricking hoppers
Hoppers with a metadata value of 1 or 9 would previously not actually appear to point in any direction. Like many of these removed blocks, they had a missing model from 14w10a up to their removal.
- Hopper (None) JE1.png
13w01a-13w01b
- Hopper (None) JE2.png
13w02a-14w08a
Using /setblock to place a hopper with metadata values 6, 7, 14 or 15 would crash the game and permanently prevent that world from being loaded, although it may be possible to recover using external editors.
Nether portal post
In 1.7.2's development, nether portals placed with data value 3 resulted in a vertical nether portal beam block.
Boring variants
Prior to the introduction of proper block states, the 0–15 block metadata system applied to all blocks. This had absolutely no effect on the majority of blocks. All interesting cases are mentioned in above sections – those which remain are listed below.
All of these gained a missing model in 14w10a and were removed in 14w26a (with increasingly unstable behavior in 14w25a and 14w25b, usually causing game crashes when approached) unless explicitly stated otherwise.
There were a total of X of these boring blocks prior to their removal, listed in the sections below.

Removed in 1.13 (17w47a)
These were the result of block state hand,ing combined with the old block ID system, resulting in some odd combinations.
Redundant seamless double slabs
In 13w04a, double stone slabs were changed so that those with data values 8 through 15 would use the top texture on all six sides. This resulted in the return of the block which would several years later become smooth stone, and also introduced the smooth sandstone and smooth quartz blocks. However, as the smooth stone double slab block also housed the cobblestone, old (later petrified) oak, bricks, stone bricks and nether bricks slabs, these would also end up having "seamless" double slab variants which were visually no different from their normal double slabs or indeed their normal blocks. These blocks persisted up to 17w47a, where they were removed by the Flattening.
Snowy dirt and snowy coarse dirt
As podzol was a numerical variant of dirt prior to 1.13, the snowy block state it used also ended up applying to dirt and coarse dirt, with no effect. These were removed in 1.13.
Bedrock Edition
Outright removed blocks
Despite having notable unique functionality or a block ID of their own, these blocks were eventually removed by the game, or replaced by another block of completely different use.
Block 253
In early Pocket Edition, there existed a block which used model of grass block in item form. This block used the numeric ID 253. Does top texture but not having bottom textures.[1][2]
It was removed in Pocket Edition v0.8.0 alpha build 2, likely due to item rendering changes in this version. Numeric ID now refers to hardened glass.
Block 254

Block 254 was used to store the item model of leaves for both the item and block forms, similarly to block 253, but also in block form tinted as regular leaves. Block 254 with damage values 0, 1 and 2 were tinted with
#48b518,
#619961 and
#80a755, respectively.

v0.2.1Tropical fish also have assigned names that can be seen after capture. In Java Edition, the smaller text under the item name is displayed showing the fish name, similar to the text that displays enchantments under enchanted items. In Bedrock Edition, the item name is displayed showing "Bucket of <fish name>". Their colors are mostly named according to the colored block names, though with a few exceptions:
The base color comes first, and if the pattern color is different, it comes after that. Lastly, the fish bucket is given a name according to the shape and pattern of the fish:
Some tropical fish don't follow the normal naming system, and instead, reference real-life fish species. Apart from these names, these types of fish aren't different from regular tropical fish in terms of design or behavior. These varieties are:

A '''slimeball''' is a [[crafting]] ingredient commonly dropped by [[slime]]s, and can be sneezed out by [[panda]]s.
== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
==== Slimes ====
{{see also|Tutorials/Slime farming}}
If a [[slime]]'s size is 1, it drops 0–2 slimeballs when killed. The maximum number of slimeballs is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 5 slimeballs with Looting III.
==== Pandas ====
Baby [[panda]]s have a {{frac|1|700}} chance of [[drop]]ping one slimeball when sneezing.
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|Slime Block
|Output= Slimeball,9
|type= Miscellaneous
}}
=== Trading ===
[[Wandering trader]]s sometimes offer to sell a slimeball for 4 [[emerald]]s.
== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}
=== Breeding ===
Slimeballs can be used to breed [[frog]]s and reduce the remaining growth duration of [[tadpole]]s by 10%. Both also follow a player holding a slimeball.
==Video==
{{Video note|This video is outdated, as slimeballs can now also be used to craft [[lead]]s and [[slime block]]s, breed [[frog]]s, and can now be obtained from baby [[panda]]s and [[wandering trader]]s.}}

'''Chains''' are metallic decoration [[block]]s.
== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Chains can be mined using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.
{{breaking row|Chain|Pickaxe|Wood|horizontal=1}}
=== Natural generation ===
Chains generate in [[bastion remnant]]s and sometimes in [[ruined portal]]s that generate in the Nether. They always generate above [[magma cube]] spawners, also found in [[bastion]]s.
Chains can also generate in [[mineshafts]]. They generate on the sides of a wooden bridge (a mid-air corridor) when the distance between the bridge and the highest solid block below it is higher than the distance to the lowest solid block above it. Chains here generate vertically in a pillar between the bridge and the ceiling. The lowest block of the pillar, connecting the chain to the bridge, is always an [[oak fence]].
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|chain}}
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|B1=Iron Nugget
|B2=Iron Ingot
|B3=Iron Nugget
|Output=Chain
|type=Building block
}}
== Usage ==
Chains can be used to suspend [[bell]]s, [[hanging sign]]s, or both types of [[lantern]]s (normal lanterns and soul lanterns), as the chain texture connects to the chain of the lantern seamlessly as if it were part of it, and it connects the hanging sign chains together. Chains do not require a supporting block to be placed whether it is on the top, next to it or at the bottom. It can exist completely free-standing in mid air<ref>{{bug|MC-178791}}</ref> and it can be rotated. Chains connect horizontally or vertically, but not across different orientations (so a chain with N orientation does not connect to a chain with E orientation in the adjacent block).
Horizontal chains one block above a surface may be walked over. Horizontal chains two blocks above a surface prevent players from traveling past them. Vertical chains block travel if targeted directly, but may be skirted.
Precision is required, but chains can be walked on, allowing for inconspicuous, although somewhat costly, bridges.
Chains can be pushed by [[piston]]s without being broken.

== Trivia ==
* A vertical chain, being a solid, but not a full [[block]], allows for many sizes of [[mob]]s and [[player]]s to pass alongside each piece horizontally.
* Despite its name, it cannot be [[crafted]] into [[chainmail armor]].<ref>{{bug|MC-178979}} - Invalid</ref>
* Chains do not stick together when moved by pistons, regardless of orientation.

|title=minecraft:dupe_hack|renewable=Yes}}
'''minecraft:dupe_hack''' is a joke item from [[Java Edition 23w13a_or_b]].
==Obtaining==
Once the <code>dupe_hack_occurrence_chance</code> vote is approved the '''dupe hack''' item has a random chance of dropping whenever an entity with chests is killed by a player, e.g. when destroying a [[Minecart with Chest|minecart with chest]] with a [[sword]].
It doesn't appear in the [[creative]] menu, not even when the [[Options#Controls|option]] "Operator Items Tab" is enabled, but can be given to the player with [[Commands/give|<code>/give</code>]] and other commands.
==Usage==
The dupe hack item can be used to create a limited amount of duplicate items by placing it on a [[crafting table]] with any other item. It has a random chance of breaking, controlled by the <code>dupe_hack_break_chance</code> vote. This limitation can be mostly bypassed by putting the items in an [[Ender Chest|ender chest]] first and duplicating the chest.

Blocks replaced by other blocks
These blocks were either made redundant by the later introduction of another block serving their exact purpose, resulting in them either getting merged into said block ID or simply removed from the game, or were simultaneously renamed and retextured while retaining an identical core functionality.
Rose
Roses in Pocket Edition had an exclusive blue texture. As a result, they were informally referred to as the "cyan flower", despite this never actually being an official name (the in-game name remained Rose for as long as it and item names existed).
In a video preview of Pocket Edition on the Xperia PLAY, a blue rose was visible.[3] Jeb stated that they exist as a replacement for Java Edition roses, following some hardware problems.
Blue roses are not planned to be added in Java Edition,[4] and they were replaced by Poppies in Pocket Edition v0.9.0 alpha. However, Johan Bernhardsson said they may return.[5]
They were purely decorative, serving no other function. They could not be used in crafting in any way.
Blocks resulting from extreme data values
The majority of these blocks were likely never actually meant to exist in-game, and occurred only due to the game handling extreme metadata values as it would those in usually attainable ranges, resulting in strange blocks with traits arguably analogous to garbage data.
Seamless smooth stone slabs
Like with Java Edition, this block existed in the game at one point.[2] It has almost certaintly been removed, but when is unknown.
Six-sided blocks
Bedrock Edition had a handful of versions of "pillar"-type blocks which used side textures on all six sides. These were effectively removed in an unknown version, forcing them to appear identical to normal such pillars, either by changing their models to that of the normal y-axis pillar or just directly changing them (which method was ized is unknown).

Mutilated piston
Piston with data values 6 and 7 (almost certainly analogous to Java Edition's six-sided pistons) existed for a time with this model.
This was almost certainly added alongside the usual piston blocks, but this is yet to be confirmed. When it was removed is not known, but it was sometime between 1.10.0 and 1.13.0.
Running the block on the higher versions, such as 1.16.0, replaces an normal piston but in the random directions.
Granite, polished granite and diorite bells
Upon their introduction to Bedrock Edition, bells using the textures of granite, polished granite and diorite also existed. They could only be placed by commands, but could also be found in villages.
It is extremely likely that these were the result of the bell being incompletely programmed. The bell can face four directions, and at this point there were four different types of bell (the stone bell alongside these three), which would correspond to the four orthogonal facing directions. Since at this point granite and diorite were stored as data value of stone, it seems reasonable to expect that these would result from drawing from that data value of the used stone texture. Attempting to place a bell with data value 4 or above would fail; there were as a result no polished diorite, andesite or polished andesite bells, as these would not have any facing directions to correspond to. As they later spawned in villages, this would also imply that these were intended to be directional bells.
Bell-less Block
There had been an unused bell which consists of the stand without a bell. This bell cannot be rung, but it will drop a normal bell when broken.
It was merged into the normal version of the block in an unknown update.
Locked Smoker, Blast Furnace, Lectern, and Barrel
There were also several unused blocks which were in a locked state. These blocks cannot be opened or used by the player (their GUI does not show up, but the player hand can still perform an action).
It was merged into the normal version of the block in an unknown update.
Smokeless Campfire
Campfires updated from beta 1.10.0 to 1.11.0 did not produce smoke particles because campfires in 1.10.0 had no functionality. Their difference in the code is not known.
It was merged into the normal version of the block in an unknown update.
